people are so ignorant

is it called tales of symphonia 2? no, its a gwell how aoaiden, its common sense.

for example. is final fantasy 7: dirge of cerberus a sequel to ff7? NO. its a gaiden, a sidestory

1)well how about you enlighten me on what makes a gaiden a gaiden. 2)from what claude says ff x-2 would be a gaiden but yet its a direct sequel. it ahs the experimental gameplay, a story that really does nothing to progress the story of ffx any further.

1) Wait, so you don't ACTUALLY know what makes a gaiden a gaiden but you feel the need to argue that the Symphonia gaiden isn't a gaiden? Good lord, what WERE you thinking?

2) Final Fantasy X-2 has **** to do with Tales. I didn't say anything about it. This is why I know you don't know what you're talking about: You're using Final Fantasy as a basis for Tales. Tales has its own style, own games, hell it even has flashy names for its individually tweaked battle systems. FF has no impact on what makes Tales, Tales. Tales gaidens have a very specific formula that applies to Tales gaidens, and Knight of Ratatosk fits the bill perfectly. I could even make a list for people that want to know.

language Claude, language. 1) I was being somewhat sarcastic, Ari said i was being ingnorant so i was sayin why dont you free me from that ignorance then. i thought you mister comprehension would ahve been albe to understand that

2) i was nto the one to bring final fantasy into the mix so why are you attacking me? Ari gave an example of  gaiden and i gave a example of a direct sequel that has similarities. Also i forgot that the tales series is so special that it does not follow the same guidlines that make otehr games gaiden.

On topic: i believe that tales of innocence will sell more becasue of the larger install base

1) I don't believe you're capable of sarcasm. This is just damage control.

2) Except Ari's example actually works. Dirge of Cerberus is a gaiden. Yes, it's after FFVII, but it's not a direct sequel. It's Vincent's story. You brought up FFX-2. It doesn't work in any shape or form. And yes, Tales IS special, because it's NOT Final Fantasy. I'm sorry your half-assed argument that all Tales games must = FF games doesn't work. It just doesn't. The producers of Tales aren't thinking "lol FFX-2," they're thinking TALES and what was previous established in this long running RPG franchise. Tales rules don't suddenly change because you're not familiar with them.

Now, I'm going to make a THIRD post to show exactly WHY FF =/= Tales and why Ratatosk Knight follows the gaiden formula.
